Tom Kerridge has teamed up with British Airways to bring travellers some tasty food.

Those who wish to travel with the airline will be in for a real treat from August.

According to British Airways, the airline’s chefs and Tom have worked closely to ensure the dishes showcase culinary expertise.

The menu includes a variety of fresh seasonal ingredients with a focus on British provenance.

Tom, 46, said: “I’m so proud to be asked by British Airways, one of the most renowned and iconic British companies, to curate exciting onboard menus for the month of August to celebrate their centenary.

“The dishes reflect not only my vision and what I do at my restaurants but most importantly, they represent the best of British food to the world.”

Carolina Martinoli, British Airways’ Director of Brand and Customer Experience, said: “Throughout our centenary year we’ve been celebrating with customers and thanking them for making us what we are today.

“As August is our birthday month, we wanted to do something to add a special touch to our customers’ journeys, and we think our partnership with Tom Kerridge will do just that.

“The dishes, which are available on all our long-haul flights, have been carefully created by Tom and his team to showcase the very best of Britain and give customers the opportunity to enjoy gourmet dishes at 35,000ft.”

This comes after James Martin launched a new menu with Thomas Cook Airlines earlier this year.

James surprised customers on board a flight to Turkey, with one describing it has “better than his wife’s cooking”.

The new menu includes a selection of delicious dishes, including a Somerset cider chicken with dauphinoise potato and roasted root vegetables and slow braised beef in Guinness, chive and garlic mash potato for main course.
